10 Tips on Taking Unique Photos with a H0l64 Camera

H0l64 cameras are low tech, inexpensive cameras that have a cult following. The cameras are not digital; they take actual film that the user has to manually advance. The camera's cheap price is a result of less than sturdy construction. The following tips tell you how to embrace these flaws in your photography. The first few tips are related to getting used to your Holga camera, followed by tips on creating unique photos.

Tip #1
Consider your first roll or two of film as trial and error. This will allow you to get used to your Holga camera as each one is unique.

Tip #2
Shop for film that has past its expiration date. It can usually be found at 75% off original price. As part of using a H0l64 camera is experimentation, the expired film just adds to the charm.

Tip #3
Develop a routine in photographing. The H0l64 camera requires you to manually advance the film after each picture. This makes it common to double expose a frame or skip a frame. By always advancing after taking a picture, you avoid both problems.

Tip #4
If you don't want light leaks, you must tape your H0l64. Each camera is unique so you may want to take a test role to see if you like your light leaks. If not, apply tape to seams located on the front above the lens on either side. Also check the seams on each side and the bottom. Gaffers tape is recommended, but can be expensive and difficult to find. First aid tape is an excellent replacement.

Tip #5
Take multiple exposures on purpose. Taking multiple shots on the same frame produces interesting pictures. For example, multiple shots of your child running on the same frame creates a unique portrait.

Tip #6
H0l64 cameras require a lot of bright light for photographs. You will need to use a flash if you are not in bright sunlight. Always try to provide the brightest light for best pictures.

Tip #7
You can add light exposure by holding down the shutter. As the shutter speed is set at 1/100th of a second, the best way to increase the light is to keep the shutter button depressed. As with all H0l64 pictures, the unknown result is part of the charm.

Tip #8
Create panoramic images with your H0l64 camera. This effect is created by taking multiple, slightly overlapping photos. Make sure that you take the pictures from left to right to ensure the overlap is in the right direction.

Tip #9
Each H0l64 camera comes with four focus settings represented by one person, three people, a group of people and a mountain. These are for 3 feet, 9 feet, 18 feet and 30 feet to infinity. Many people are not aware that you can choose a manual setting in between these preset options. As with all things Holga, experiment to see what you like.

Tip #10
The H0l64 camera has a vignette effect where the sides of the photos 'slide off' the edges. Use this to create a halo effect around your subject. Additionally make sure you fill the entire frame so that the colors that fall off form a nice border.

These ten tips will help you get the most out of your H0l64 camera. Take pictures and enjoy the unique results.

They Just Tell You That You Are On Your Own

Orang yang berkata sedemikian tak patut disimpan sebagai kawan..

Minggu ni agak hektik, dengan tertinggal handphone dekat hotel (sedar masa lepas Yong Peng and terpaksa patah balik at Muar), dengan outstesyennyer ke Kluang, dengan tertinggal handphone (buat kali kedua di hotel semasa lunch Dim Sum besama family), I certainly cannot cope with the news of my so called 'close friends' talked behind me

Well, when you heard my story, you would agree that they do not deserve to be called 'close friends' anymore. Lemme tell you this.

A group of school friends that I can relate to always send emails (i want to call them spam emails, geram OK) had a gathering to celebrate a bride to be, lebih kurang hen nite. My best friend (Ms JKL) attended it coz she was obviously invited. I am not sure how my name came about but Ms JKL said that my name was 'mentioned'. I think Ms JKL asked how come I was not invited, and this Makcik Loyar (she took Law, so I decided to call her this) said that I did not make the effort to be friends with them, so that's why I am being isolated. Like waddaF**? (Capital F!!)
First, the Makcik Loyar was not even close to me, I am not sure how she came into the picture, yet she can come up with such comment of me. Ni yang saya tak faham coz, i mean , kamon..aku tak rasa aku baik ngan kau haruskah kau bagi komen? Unless the other girls who 'voices out' their dissatisfaction, i think i will not be this mad.

Kawan2 yang ada di funksyen itu adalah (tidak mengikut sebarang order):
1) Pn Ikut Saja (I am quite close to her during uni days, but somehow she likes to compete with me, it turns out she like to compete with all. Have a husband who likes to make sexual remarks with her other friends but she just kept quiet. Your own friends, for god's sake!!)
2) Pn 'I'm the one with 2 kids' (Kami rapat masa f3, occasionally gaduh pasal bola coz she's a supporter of KolamHati (sila translet). Saya ada ajak dia gi kelas sesama, tapi macam tak motivated. agak kerap guna alasan saya ada anak, buat aku boring)
3) Pn 'I like to talk about s*x' (sebelum kahwin agak suka dan teruja untuk berbincang hal yang berkaitan dengan topik di atas. Masa sekolah suka panggil saya muka bulan)
4) Cik Bride to Be (satu kelas dari form 1 sampailah form 5. she is sweet, in fact saya sms dia forwardkan msg Best Friends Day bulan lepas.)
5) Cik 'Kolam Hati' (kami pernah exchange diary masa darjah 5. Dia juga baik, tapi sebab dia rapat kepada (sila rujuk individu no 3), maka saya kurang rapat dengan dia. Peminat tegar bersama2 (sila rujuk individu no.2).)
6) Makcik Loyar (aku malas nak komen pasal engkau, bukan aku tau pape pun)
7) Cik Dokter (saya rasa dia sangat baik, tapi still tak tau nak borak ape sangat dgn dia)
8) Cik Selam (suka menyelam. rapat dengan individu no 6 & 7)

Orang2 di atas tidak berkata apa2 pun. Bermakna mereka setuju dengan pendapat Makcik Loyar!!!

Ini baru situasi 1, situasi 2 pula:

Di kenduri kahwin, sekawan uni/housemates berkumpul, tetapi tak cukup korum.(Sayalah tu). Ms JKL juga ada di majlis yang sama. Tiba2 Puan 'aku tak keep in touch juga' tiba2 mengjustifykan situasi. Tak sure juga kenapa benda ni boleh timbul tapi Puan 'aku tak keep in touch juga' cakap dengan other uni/ housemates yang saya ni terasa sebab dia tak ajak saya pergi kenduri kahwin adik dia. OK, ni satu lagi waddaF (Capital F!!). Parents dia ada ajak parents saya. Saya dapat tahu bila parents saya tanya saya tak pergi kah? Saya macam tak kisah sangat coz ini adik dia yang kahwin, bukan dia (kalau dia kahwin tak ajak memang la mengamuk). So cerita tu mati di situ. Saya tak teringat apa2 pun. Saya tak terasa pun.

Dari tak terasa jadik mengamuk sampai naik kepala. Kenapalah diorg ni yer? Saya rasa awak tak kontek saya, jadi haruskah saya yang asyik kontek awak? Saya sms awak pun bukan awak balas pun? "Gila you against the world" kata Ms JKL.

Geng 1, saya tak berapa nak kawan dengan korang sebab:
1) Korang citer pasal anak, aku takde benda nak share. Haruskah saya chip in tak tentu pasal. Korang pun tak sensitive sangat, tak pikir ke maybe saya agak terasa?
2) Asyik nak kutuk orang, boringlah makcik2. Asyik nak smash org, tak tahanlah makcik.
3) Aku cakap BM pastu cakap mentang2 aku keje gomen. Masalahnye, adakah saya keje gomen? Bukan engkorang tau pun
4) Bila I reply balik dlm thread email korang tu, ada tak orang acknowledge/ reply balik from my last reply. TARAK!

Geng 2, saya sayang korang semua cuma kenapa Puan 'aku tak keep in touch juga' boleh assume macam tu? Haih, malas tull nak pikir semua benda macam ni.

Enche' B cakap, pedulikkan orang2 yang macam ni, baik u kawan dengan kawan2 i jer. Keep the one closest only.(You know who you are). Lagipun kawan2 yang buat kepala saya berserabut ni tak worth it lah!

Inilah ceritera pasal kawan yang sama gender dengan saya ni. Macam drama swasta! Like entertainment...haha (gelak jahat)
